BS, BA, But No MRS.?

Forty-two percent of U.S. black women have never been married, which is double the number of white women who’ve never tied the knot. Is it because their standards are too high or is it because they just choose not to get married? After watching the documentary “Why Are There So Many Single Black Females?” it all became clear. Many successful black women are single because they have their standards (which they don’t plan on lowering), as should women in general. Some have particular height requirements, some financial requirements, and some other requirements. There are 1.8 million more black women in the U.S then there are black men. Out of the population of black men available subtract those with no high school diploma, no job, and those incarcerated; this leaves about half of the black male population available to marry. While the number of unavailable black men is disappointing, some of these women are willing to date outside of their race. Although dating outside of their race is an option they still aren’t satisfied with the market. Will these beautiful successful women be single forever?
